Chapter 460 Was it an unintentional mistake or intentional?
Dawn breaks and the morning light is dim.
Yun Ran got up early, washed up, and opened the door of Shanhai Tower with two waiters from the restaurant.
As soon as the door opened, the sound of laughter and joy came to our face.
Smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air and looking at the big red couplets and big red lanterns posted on the rouge shop opposite, she realized belatedly that the New Year was not over yet.
What day is it today?
So many things happened these days that she almost forgot the date.
"Hey, did you hear?"
An old lady passing by with a basket on her shoulder was talking to a woman wrapped in a thick coat who was walking beside her.
"What did you hear?" asked the woman in the thick coat.
The old lady glanced in Yun Ran's direction, then leaned over to the woman's ear and whispered, "It's the young owner of this restaurant. He was found yesterday!"
The woman naturally saw Yun Ran as well and rolled her eyes at the old lady: "He's right here, how could I not know this? I'm not blind."
"Tsk," the old lady slapped her thigh. "Do you know what's going on? The third daughter of the Yun family, the future princess of Prince Jing'an, was kidnapped by people from the Nanlin Kingdom!"
"Ah!" The woman was surprised. "But why did the people from Nanlin Country kidnap her?"
"You don't know this, right? Look at this girl, she's so beautiful, she's a good cook, and I heard she's pretty good at martial arts too. I guess the King of Nanlin has taken a fancy to her and wants to kidnap her to marry his son."
"Oh my, you don't say, it's true!" The woman immediately agreed, her eyes shining with excitement.
"Then how did she come back?"
The old lady rolled her eyes and began to speak: "I tell you, this is incredible! She did this, this... How could the young prince Jing'an just ignore it? He naturally took action...
And then there are her eldest and second brothers who are officials in the palace. I heard there are also her sister and her grandfather. Oh my God, it’s unbelievable! The Nanlin army was wiped out by them without a single piece of armor left! "
The two men took advantage of the fact that they were standing across the street, farther away from Yun Ran, and spoke in low voices, not afraid that she would hear them.
But Yun Ran had sharp ears and heard every word.
Moreover, it wasn't just these two ladies. Early this morning, she stood at the door and heard many people talking about what happened yesterday, and what they said was surprisingly consistent.
It was nothing more than that she was kidnapped by people sent by the King of Nanlin. She escaped cleverly and fought against the Nanlin army together with the young Prince Jing'an and her second brother, killing all the Nanlin army without leaving a single survivor.
Hmm… Although the general plot is correct, it sounds surprisingly outrageous when you listen to it.
Just as I was thinking about it, a laughing voice sounded behind me.
"What are you doing here so early in the morning? If you're hungry, go find something to eat. How can you get full just standing here and drinking the wind?"
Yun Ran turned around and saw a lotus petal.
It was the New Year, and the old man changed into new clothes, put on a thick coat, and ate a bun in his hand.
Seeing Yun Ran looking at him, he handed the bun to Yun Ran and said, "How about I give you mine?"
Yun Ran shook his head, looked at the street again, then turned and walked into the lobby.
Ask Jiuyue to bring a few waiters to clean up the lobby, stack the tables and chairs to the side, and clear out a large space in the middle.
Yibanlian looked at her like this, a little puzzled: "Girl, what are you doing?"
Yun Ran leaned against a table and watched the waiters busying around. He pursed his lips and smiled at Yibanlian: "Master, what day is it today?"
Yibanlian was confused: "The fifth day of the new year, right? What happened?"
Yun Ran stood up straight and stretched like a lazy cat: "It's the fifth day of the New Year. I just counted on my fingers and it's a good day to receive gifts!"
Before Yibanlian understood what she had just said, Yun Ran finished stretching and suddenly stopped.
Then he looked at Yibanlian who was still eating a bun and said, "Master, it's very windy here, do you want to go back to your room to eat?"
"Is the wind strong?" Yibanlian took another big bite of the bun, chewing with her cheeks puffing up and down, wondering, "Isn't it strong?"
"Oh, I said the wind is strong, so it is strong!"
Yun Ran pushed him up to the second floor without giving him any time to reason. After watching him take the last step, he warned him, "Go back to your room and eat. If you get sick from drinking the flu, I won't call a doctor for you!"
"Tsk~" Yibanlian rolled her eyes in disdain, "Even a little girl like you is bullying an old man, it's unfair!"
Yun Ran ignored him. The footsteps were getting closer, and the person must be close.
She calmly walked to the recliner behind the counter at the door, sat down, and swayed leisurely.
After a while, a shrill voice was heard, loudly saying: "The imperial edict has arrived!"
Yun Ran raised his eyelids lazily and saw Anji walking in from outside with a few guards, holding his whisk.
"Little Princess Jing'an..." Anji called out with a smile on his face.
Yun Ran remained unmoved and closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep.
"Little Princess..." Anji had no choice but to call her again. He lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing Yun Ran.
Yun Ran remained silent.
Anji had no choice but to stand at the door of Shanhai Tower with the imperial edict in his hands for a full hour. His arms, which were holding the imperial edict, were so sore as if they were filled with lead.
Yun Ran then turned over, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and "woke up" with a confused look on his face.
Seeing Angie and a group of people waiting in front of her, she staggered in surprise when she stood up.
Then he said with an apologetic look, "Eunuch An? When did you come? I just got back last night. I was a little tired after a whole day and night. I didn't even hear you come in. I'm really sorry."
Anji had a smile on his face, but the corners of his mouth twitched: "It's okay, we just came here a while ago, and the little princess was wronged yesterday."
"It's quite unfair." Yun Ran answered decisively.
She stretched, stood up from the recliner, propped her elbows on the counter, and gave An Ji a bright smile. "So, was this incident by Eunuch An an accidental mistake? Or was it intentional?"
What she was referring to was naturally the fact that Anji took her to the palace under the pretext of chatting with the emperor, Prince Jing'an and others, but threw her into the carriage of the Nanlin Army.
Angie's forced smile froze.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yun Ran tapped the counter rhythmically with her white and slender fingers, and the smile on the corner of her mouth seemed particularly harmless.
"Why, the eunuch himself doesn't know? Then... I wonder if His Majesty has punished the eunuch for this matter?"
Anji stood there for a long time holding the imperial edict in his hand. He was not young anymore, and his waist, legs and arms were sore from standing. Yun Ran's words made the forced smile on his face distorted and ugly.
Seeing him looking so uncomfortable, Yun Ran sighed with a frown, "Ah... since you don't want to talk about it, then forget it."
"Aren't you here to announce the imperial edict, sir? Then stop standing there and read it quickly."
